Cairn Terrier puppies and dogs in Forest Grove, Oregon

Hazel Grace came from a small Texas rescue about June2025. They said was four years old at the time had arrived to them pregnant and her puppies had been adoped out. I wanted a small terrier under 20 pounds to go with my so called Cairn mix who was about 6 pounds at the time. She was billed as Cairn mix terrier. We had a small back yard at the time and both dogs got on well. We moved to Oregon. We could no not let them loose in our bigger back yard, due to fear and eagle or other raptor would make a dinner out ot them. Not able to run off her anxieties the Cairn Terrier became jealous ot the Calboure cairn terrier. Hazel was not allowed to sit on our laps with out the Cairn mix terrier fronting her. The Cairn mix suffers from anxiety and attacked Hazel. We had too many fights. Hazel was clearly a stray for some time. She eats her kibble well and is affection at. If you want a small loving dog, Hazel Grace is for you.

Meet Sandy! ❤️ A Friendly Little Cairn Terrier Mix Ready to Find Her Forever Home! Breed: Cairn Terrier Mix Gender: Female Age: Unknown Weight: 16 lbs Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Friendly, Sociable, and Sweet Medical: Vaccinations in Progress | Spay Status Not Confirmed ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Meet Sandy, a delightful 16-pound Cairn Terrier mix with a friendly personality and a wonderful opportunity for a fresh start! This lovely little girl is searching for a family who will welcome her into their home and give her the love, security, and companionship she deserves. While Sandy's exact age is unknown, one thing we do know is that she's a friendly girl! Her welcoming nature makes her a promising companion for someone looking for a small dog to share everyday life with. About the Cairn Terrier Mix Cairn Terriers originated in Scotland, where they were bred to hunt small animals among rocky terrain. These little dogs are known for their intelligence, determination, lively personalities, and affectionate relationships with their families. As a Cairn Terrier mix, Sandy may inherit several wonderful characteristics: Friendly and Affectionate: Many Cairn Terriers enjoy companionship and family interaction. Intelligent and Curious: They often enjoy learning new skills and investigating their surroundings. Playful and Spirited: Their Terrier heritage can bring enthusiasm for toys, games, and outdoor activities. Confident and Independent: They may have a determined streak that benefits from patient training. Alert and Observant: Cairn Terriers are often attentive to activity around them. These are general breed tendencies, and Sandy's individual personality and energy level will guide her needs. Sandy's Ideal Home At 16 pounds, Sandy is a convenient size for a variety of living arrangements, including apartments or houses, provided she receives appropriate exercise and attention. She would be a lovely match for an individual, couple, or family seeking a friendly companion who can participate in everyday activities. Sandy is considered suitable for homes with other dogs and children, with proper introductions and supervision. Her compatibility with cats is currently unknown. Sandy deserves a family who will appreciate her friendly spirit and make her a cherished part of their lives. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Because Sandy's age and previous training history are unknown, her adopter should be prepared to help her learn household routines and reinforce basic manners. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so patience and positive reinforcement are important. Sandy may benefit from: Consistent house training and bathroom routines. Gentle leash training and basic obedience. Daily walks and supervised outdoor exploration. Interactive toys, scent games, and mental enrichment. Positive introductions to new people, pets, and environments. Cairn Terrier mixes can be clever and independent, so short, enjoyable training sessions will help encourage cooperation. The 3-3-3 Rule Every rescue dog needs time to adjust to a new home: 3 Days: Decompress and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Learn household routines and develop confidence. 3 Months: Build trust and feel more comfortable with the family. These are flexible guidelines rather than deadlines. A predictable routine and gentle encouragement will help Sandy settle in at her own pace. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Sandy is currently in the process of receiving her vaccinations. Her future family will need to review her medical records and complete any outstanding vaccines or boosters according to veterinary recommendations. Her spay status has not yet been confirmed. If she has not been spayed, her adopter must follow the rescue's sterilization requirements and veterinary guidance. Cairn Terrier Health Considerations Cairn Terrier mixes may have inherited predispositions to certain conditions, including: Skin Allergies: Some Cairn Terriers are prone to environmental sensitivities and skin irritation. Patellar Luxation: A kneecap condition that can affect mobility. Dental Disease: Regular tooth brushing and dental examinations help maintain oral health. Eye Conditions: Certain inherited eye disorders may occur in the breed. These are general breed-related considerations, not diagnosed conditions in Sandy. Grooming & Lifelong Care Depending on her coat type, Sandy may need regular brushing and occasional professional grooming to keep her coat healthy and comfortable. Her future family should also provide balanced nutrition, parasite prevention, routine veterinary examinations, dental hygiene, nail trimming, and appropriate exercise. Because her exact age is unknown, a veterinary assessment can help determine her individual health needs and the most suitable care routine. Adopting Sandy means providing the stability, companionship, and lifelong care every rescue dog deserves. Adoption Information Ready to welcome Sandy into your family? Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs in need and helping them find safe, loving forever homes. We coordinate safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States, subject to veterinary and travel clearance. Because Sandy's vaccinations are still in progress, any outstanding medical requirements must be addressed before transportation arrangements are finalized. Sandy is a friendly little girl with so much companionship to offer! At 16 pounds, she's a wonderful size for someone looking for a loving canine friend. Her age may be a mystery, but her future doesn't have to be. With a family who will cherish her, Sandy can begin a beautiful new chapter filled with comfort, kindness, and happy memories. Could you be the one to give Sandy the forever home she's been waiting for? ❤️ Apply to Adopt: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptionsNovember 11, 2026, 11:11 pm

If you are looking for a confident, deeply loyal companion who thinks human affection is the absolute best thing on earth, meet Reed! From the very first moment you meet him, Reed makes it clear that people are his favorite part of the day. He is incredibly trusting and loving, happily rolling right onto his back for belly rubs, chin scratches, and full-body hugs. He opens his heart instantly to everyone he meets, including men and new guests! Making him a wonderful, welcoming host for a social home. See all the love this social butterfly gives! Watch his video here! https://youtu.be/CdNwbFdgDIM Reed is a beautifully balanced, medium-to-low energy gentleman. He isn't a high-maintenance athlete. Instead, he prefers a relaxed routine where he can contentedly lounge by your side or peacefully roam around a sunny backyard. He is an absolute expert at just "existing" happily in your space, bringing a calm, reassuring presence to your daily life. When it comes to the finer things in life, Reed takes two things very seriously: his treats and his toys!

He also has a wonderful, endearing love for his toys and would thrive with a dedicated toy basket to call his very own.

Roki Scruff and Shenanigans looks like a loofah with eyebrows, and somehow that is a very handsome look. Add a beard, a mustache, and a whole lot of confidence, and you have Roki—a scruffy little character who brings the fun, then scoots in close for the scritchy-scratchy moments he looks forward to all day! Go watch Roki on YouTube to see that glorious scruff in motion, catch a little of his terrier personality, and watch how happily he soaks up affection. Copy and paste the link into yur browser to see more! https://youtu.be/pgV1_k_TCEY Roki is estimated to be about a year old, and we’re guessing a Cairn Terrier mix, possibly with some Schnauzer in there. His age and breed are our best guesses, but the beard is a pretty scientific clue. His rough coat and fluffy eyebrows give him a wonderfully expressive face, perfectly suited to the personality underneath. This boy loves being loved on. Booty scratches, belly rubs, hands working their way through all that scruff—yes, please! He’ll crawl up beside you and politely ask for a little attention, then happily settle into whatever affection you have available. For a boy with so much gumption, he has a very sweet way of getting close to make a connection. Roki is young, energetic, and ready to put some fun on the calendar. Walks, playtime, and opportunities to explore would suit him beautifully. He brings that familiar terrier confidence to meeting other dogs, too. He’s happy to introduce himself and has his own ideas about how the games should go, usually involving a good chase. A playful, easygoing dog who enjoys chase games and appreciates a friend with a little sass could be a lovely match. Roki would also be happy as an only dog, with his people providing the adventures and affection. A cat-free home is his best fit, thanks to that love of chase, cats feel strongly they are not the right company for his enthusiasm. When it’s time to rest, Roki has shown us that the setup matters. He has done well spending quiet time in a roomy, comfortably contained space with a little couch of his own. A crate currently gets more commentary from him, so a home with flexibility to use a cozy room or another suitable space would be a great starting point. Apartment living would need careful consideration, especially if the plan involves extended daytime crating. His success in a larger space is encouraging, and his family can build on that as he settles into home life. Roki brings the fun, a lot of affection, and a face you’ll want approximately 400 pictures of. If your idea of good company has a scruffy beard, enjoys a lively game, and happily backs up for booty scratches, this boy deserves a spot on your couch and forever in your heart.
